Frequent pipe clogs, packages always stolen
Pros
location is great
Cons
the super can be difficult, packages are always stolen especially if they are packaged with distinct branding (amazon packages are usually left alone)
Beware of the Doggy Day Care
Pros
The building has a mix of rented and owned units, many in the building have been here for many years and take pride in the building being kept clean and orderly.
Cons
Some tenants have reported packages being stolen, as the mail room is on the bottom floor and is accessible to anyone who is able to buzz their way into the building. More importantly however, there is a doggy day care underneath the residential apartments. The day care has zero incentive to keep the dogs quiet or add additional padding in the walls of their business. Despite numerous complaints from tenants to management, nothing has been done to resolve the situation. Be aware that you will be awoken or kept up at night by barking dogs. The super is losing it as well and you will hear him yelling morning and night at the dogs or employees of day care because his apartment is in the basement of the building next to the day care and he has told me he goes days at a time without sleep. I would not advise renting anything below the third floor.
Advice to the owners
Resolve the dog situation, get involved.
